You know it’s time to get a new job when the store you work in is robbed two times in the same weekend! A Blockbuster Video store (the store I used to rent from when we lived in Englewood) was robbed Saturday afternoon by two men, then Monday night by a single man.

Local pro wrestler Alan Carnill (better known around the Denver indie pro wrestling scene as Beetlejuice) was killed Sunday in an auto accident in Kansas. This is personally very sad news. I have met Alan a couple of times, and chatted with him via email many times. He went through a lot in his life, including losing his daughter to cancer. He was a great performer in the ring, and was fun to talk to outside the ring. Alan was a great guy, and will be missed.
